 I caused a bit of a stir with this picture, I'm really sorry.
When I submitted the original for validation, the SC didn't see that it was a real box in front of a projection. They thought it was just entirely a screenshot and that initially led to a disqualification.
After I showed this making-of photo, the decision was reversed:

Of course I think that's great!
Many thanks to the members of the SC who had so much work with me and were open-minded enough to take on the matter. Thank you also to all the dpc-people who spoke for me!

What a back and forth - to me it was clear that it is a projection on real boxes, the shadows clearly show that. Well, good you had a proof in the "making-of"-shot.
(Just for the record (or the future) - the above refers to Forum Thread regarding DQ.)
I certainly liked the idea, and you did come up with a creative idea. Well deserved top 5 placement!

Very creative, Barbara, and very pleasing to the eye. This was my yellow ribbon pick. I'm glad the DQ got overturned.

I thought I had commented on this during voting - clearly not. This was a super creative image I thought. Love the "cleanness" (don't think that is a word) of the shapes and your color combination.

interesting looks like you used a projector, I like it has a stock photo feel
